Oh he tried the parents bed. The gave him a book and some toys and he dropped both a lot (they are on the third floor, right above us) and talked at top volume and didn't want toast. No. So I went up and offered to make eggs. I was a little surprised when his mom sent him down alone with me but it worked out.
DH is up and making coffee and I got another two hours of zzzzs. This will be an amusing day.
Sox, I'm sure you're earning a halo right now -- altho' at least most 6yos are charming and fun when uncrankinated.
I never thought that jetlag was contagious, but clearly I was wrong!
So it turns out I maybe needed a day to relax and actually do something fun.
Yes! Good one.
Aw jeez, aurelia. I'm glad it wasn't worse, but sounds like terrible timing.
I have to Clean All The Things today, as well as put all the things away aka into the spare bedroom, in preparation for having my whole family over on Tuesday.
You know, my sister's bedroom and hallway are fully carpeted. So how is it the dog still manages to wake me up too early with her clickety-clacking around the room?
OK! I have: done dishes, put in a load of laundry, and swapped mattresses. I'm sleeping on my grandmother's bed, and her mattress is "good," but I think it's too soft for me. We'll see how tonight goes with my old mattress on there.
I need to Clean All The Things too, Jesse. Plus get the tree up so we look Christmasy. Wish me luck!
First step: coffee. Okay technically that's the second step since I took out the recycling while it brewed. Breakfast will be papas rellanas and cheese blintzes. Look at me, all multi-culti with the food!
We are making five kinds of cookies today. Made the dough for two last night do they could chill. Mmm.
Have ironed and hung (and/or rehung) more curtains, taken out recycling, cleaned the bathroom, showered, put away the laundry. Next I have to go out for a couple of Christmas things, but first lunch. Also hairdrying.
I should be cleaning. Or doing something productive with my unexpected day.
If you need a break, try this. Composer or Pasta? [link]
Last-minute shopping is done, I have to wrap this pile of presents now. And I think I'm coming down with a chest cold. Urgg. Just want to go back to bed.
